What Our Editors Thought

“Bourbon with a bit of brandy frames sweet, nutty vanilla in the aroma. Bold, deep malt notes in the sip hit with a strong bitterness and sweet rounded edge while the acidity from the malt hones its edge.”

What Our Panel Thought

“A wildly rich experience with bourbon taking center stage. Strong but smooth alcohol delivers chocolate richness backed with prune, figs, and a soft vanilla backbone. It’s like those liqueur-filled chocolates, but in bulk.”

What the Brewers Say

“BBA imperial stout with macadamia nuts, chocolate, and vanilla added.
